The Nursing Assistant to Medical Assistant Apprenticeship Bridge Program at Methodist College in Peoria is just what the doctor ordered. 100% pass rate on the state certification exam last year, this program gives apprentices the experience they need to change lives. pic.twitter.com/pAXp2yPdvS

It was a case of ’shocked face’ and the governor felt awkward when he found out the person suffering from it was an assistant superintendent of finance for a suburban school district.

“The reality is, you know, lawsuits happen in nursing homes, even the best companies. It’s unfortunate but it happens. It’s the nature of the business and the nature of the service.”
“But you know what? I wasn’t on the board when these deaths occurred. We were investors in the company. We didn’t operate the company ourselves. And to try to say, you know, I’m a horrible person because I invested in a company, my firm did. The company failed. It went bankrupt. We lost all our money and there were lawsuits that are going to play out in court.
“If there is any wrongdoing, I hope it’s punished. I don’t believe there was.”

Due to twitter’s character limit, the following could not be included in the tweet: Unfortunately, the apprentices won’t have an opportunity to change lives because I am striving to keep their wages low by pushing right to work and cutting Medicaid funding so medical facilities can’t afford to hire them in the first place.
